It feels great,the whole country behind the boys,even people who think cricket is shit are taking notice. This is why something like the Ashes should be kept on terrestrial television. Cricket was in a downward spiral before the introduction of 20/20 and the resurgence of the England team in World cricket. This Ashes series is doing massive things for cricket in this country and interest is being renewed because anyone can turn on their TV and get involved, this is the way it should stay as far as I’m concerned.. regardless of a few annoying adverts. |

Before channel four got it, about 6 years ago maybe?!? Reg? Anyone?
To be fair they hadn't updated their coverage for years, no graphics, nothing, just Benaud talking us through Phil Edmonds spinning technique.

Was that the tune that was introduced for a West Indies tour, the one that got released as a dance track in the mid nineties. Starts with a tapping like "Da da da da da da da, da da da da da da", na na na na na, do do do do do do do do do......
I think it was featured on the album "On a dance tip"
